yes, I heard it is very good.

BTW, does it happen to be anything like this:

I played this one before Limbo was announced, so I wonder if Limbo is an
upgraded version for the XBox...

and no, I wouldn't call these games arcade... they are more in the same vein as
puzzle-platformers as (ancient) Prince of Persia or Another World...

Roger Ebert is full of BS.  Watching games is not the same as playing them.  I
first realized games could be art when I would not pay attention to the score

He's like one of those late 1800's drama critics dismissing cinema as a cheap
toy medium...
